Traveling with the Lutes

This fall, the Football Lutes found themselves once again involved in the NCAA-III National Championship Tournament. The Office of Alumni and Parent Relations took the opportunity to gather alumni, parents and friends at pre-game functions in both Spokane and in Fargo, N.D. The trip to Fargo developed when it was learned we would again be matched in the second round of the tournament with the St. John Johnnies from Collegeville, Minn. Winter storms forced the organizers to look for alternatives to the Johnnies home field and booked the FargoDome. As would be the "luck of the Lutes" the executive director of the Fargo Dome is PLU alum, Paul Johnson '76. Paul and his staff were instrumental in hosting the game and our pre-game brunch attended by approximately 125 Lute fans.
